"Thanks to Prince Heng, I'll be waiting for Yunxi."

The image of that pale purple figure flashed through Yan Shaoheng's mind, giving him a terrible headache.

"I once fought against Yan An at the Yan residence, and I suspect that the Heavenly Mountain Water she possesses could overturn the entire Tiancang Continent if she were to use it."

"If this water from Tianshan could be used on your experimental subjects, it would surely be a great asset."

Yunxi wasn't stupid; how could Yan Shaoheng be so kind?

It was merely a pretext to get him to deal with Yan An.

But if what Yan Shaoheng said is true, and he has obtained the water of Tianshan, what can the world do to him?

"Rest assured, Prince Heng, no matter what Yan An has, as long as she is Bai Qing's disciple, I will definitely not let her go."

"Knock knock knock..."

"master."

The person who came was Cheng Ying, who had just returned from Yue Zhixiao's courtyard.

"Come in."

"My lord, the young prince has been settled in and has chosen the courtyard you built for him."

"Okay, see what he needs and have Jiang Ying get it for him."

"Yes, Master."

Cheng Ying is the steward of the Prince Heng's mansion. Yan Shaoheng entrusts all his affairs, big and small, to Cheng Ying.

The affairs of the Hengwang Mansion, both large and small, were entrusted to Jiang Ying.

Besides, all the other assassins in the movie theater have a common name: Shadow.

Once the shadows in the movie theater are given other identities, they will have their own names.

"Did Xiao'er say anything?"

Yan Shaoheng was afraid that his son might have some complaints about his first visit to the Yan Kingdom.

"Those young princes didn't say anything, except that they mentioned Zebin, their former personal bodyguard."

"Zebin?"

Yan Shaoheng murmured to himself, feeling that the name was extremely familiar.

"Oh, I remember now, it's the one who's always been by Xiao'er's side. Hmm, he is indeed a loyal servant."

Yan Shaoheng had heard a lot about what happened at the scene that day, and it was rare to see someone so devoted to protecting their master.

"The young prince inquired about his situation and wanted me to rescue him."

Although Yan Shaoheng thought this kind of servant was not bad, he would not go to such lengths as to risk his life for him.

"Did he really say that?"

"Your subordinate dares not deceive your master."

Yan Shaoheng couldn't help but wonder if Zebin had an unusual relationship with his son.

In Yan Shaoheng's eyes, Yue Zhixiao was the same kind of person as him, who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals.

The fact that he's planning to return to the Moon Kingdom to rescue a mere guard today suggests their relationship is anything but ordinary.

"Yunxi, come with me to see Xiao'er. He has never seen you before."

Upon entering the courtyard, a towering artificial hill stands majestically, and the water in the pond is fairly clear; apart from that, there is nothing else.

Yue Zhixiao was sitting on the roof, looking down at everything in the courtyard.

"Xiao'er, come down quickly, let me introduce you."

Yan Shaoheng shouted towards the high place, and Yue Zhixiao saw that the person coming was her father, so she lightly flew down.

"Greetings, Father. What brings you here?"

"Xiao'er, are you satisfied with this?"

"Hmm, not bad, very satisfied."

"That's good. The Yan Kingdom is a bit small, and this is a small villa. I was worried you might find it too small."

However, during construction, I demolished both original courtyards to barely build this one.

Please bear with this for a few days; we'll be able to enter the palace in a few days.

As for what you want to decorate the courtyard with, just ask Jiang Ying and have him arrange it.

"Xiao'er, although we won't be staying here for more than a few days, we can't skimp on ourselves. Buy the best we can."

"Your son understands, thank you, Father."

"Xiao'er, let me introduce you. This is Yun Xi. Yun Yao, who you were communicating with before, is his apprentice."

Now, Yun Xi, alive and well, stood before Yue Zhixiao. Perhaps due to the effects of the Gu worm, Yun Xi appeared cold and lifeless, lacking any normal human complexion. He even had an indescribable odor that made Yue Zhixiao feel instantly uncomfortable.

"Greetings, Your Highness."

Yan Shaoheng noticed that Yue Zhixiao seemed a little dazed and wondered what was wrong. "What's wrong, Xiao'er?"

"Oh, it's nothing, Father. I've met Mr. Yunxi."

“We just came from Qingfeng Courtyard. Since Yunxi was here today, we had him check your mother’s pulse. Fortunately, there was nothing wrong. That’s why your mother insisted that I bring him to see you before she could feel at ease.”

Yue Zhixiao naturally knew what his mother meant, even though he was extremely unwilling.

But he didn't want to go against his mother's good intentions.

"Then Father and Mr. Yunxi, please come inside."

The furniture in the house has all been set up, and it is all made of the finest wood.

The room was filled with an air of grandeur and magnificence, with carved railings and jade steps. The houses in the entire courtyard were all large and imposing, displaying the grandeur of royalty.

"Father, please have a seat, Mr. Yunxi."

"Xiao'er..."

Before Yan Shaoheng could finish speaking, Yue Zhixiao interrupted him.

“Since it is all Mother’s wish, I will do as she wishes. Mr. Yunxi, please.”

Yue Zhixiao rolled up his sleeves and placed his arms on the table.

Yunxi examined his pulse and diagnosed him for a long time.

"As Prince Heng said, the young prince is not ill, but if he wants to take a few more concubines to add to the royal family, I can still give it a try."

Yun Xi's words struck a chord with Yue Zhixiao. In his heart, he had never felt that he was sick.

He was just using the same methods he used on his daughter on men, only a bit harsher.

Yan Shaoheng and his son's eyes lit up instantly, especially Yue Zhixiao, who struggled to suppress his joy.

For men, besides achieving great things and establishing a career, continuing the family line is the fundamental purpose of being human.

If one has not left behind a son or daughter while still alive, one has no face to face one's ancestors.

"really?"

"Of course, please extend your hand a little closer, Your Highness, so I can take your pulse more carefully."

Perhaps feeling hopeful, an unexpected sense of excitement filled his entire body at that moment.

"Alright, sir, please continue reading."

Yunxi took his pulse again, and suddenly her brows furrowed.

"Young Prince, did you encounter anything unusual while you were in the Moon Kingdom? Did you experience anything unusual?"

Yun Xi's sudden furrowing of her brows made them somewhat nervous.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with my body?"

"I didn't discover this when I took your pulse earlier, but after a closer examination, I've discovered that your body has already been poisoned."

This poison is extremely potent; it should take effect in seven days. However, seven days should have passed long ago, so I don't know why he's unharmed.

At this moment, Yue Zhixiao's heart was pounding, as if it was about to jump out of her throat. Her hands were trembling slightly, and her palms were sweating profusely.

"Am I poisoned?"
